DOE: Sound Extension

[Trenloe]

Try reinstalling Syrinscape - maybe the associations in the Windows registry didn't get created correctly the first time.

... The sound extension doesn't seem to work properly on any flavor of macOS or OS X.

For the record, its not the DOE: Sound Extension that doesn't work on mac, it's Syrinscape's 3PI (3rd Party Integration) that doesn't work on mac.

Yeah, that was the next step

1. I choose an existing sound from Syrinscape and confirmed that it plays by clicking on its button in Syrinscape.

2. Created a new Soundlink Record using the 3rd Party Integration for the sound in step 1. Clicked on the green "+" button so that the purple Soundlink icon was created/appears.
3. Re-confirmed that Sounds are turned "On" in the FG Options.

4. Tested the new Soundlink. Still not working.
5. Reinstalled Syrinscape. Still not working.

When I click the soundlink with or without Syrinscape running it does not start it or shows any error.

Open Internet Explorer and paste the copied Syrinscape third-party link into the URL bar and press enter. This is a good test - as it is essentially what FG is doing, but outside of FG.

If you get a dialog box asking you to confirm the link, make sure you uncheck the "always ask" checkbox.

That's really weird!

So you heard the sound playing in step 1, and the Soundlink record appears to be correct (although it could use a name ), and everything else looks OK - so I'll be buggered if I know why its not working.

I can make out from your first screenshot: which Soundset is that and which mood - I'm going to see if I can re-create things.

After the tip from Trenloe I went to the Windows registry to check and I found what the problem was.
It is a bug with the Syrinscape installer, when you have accents in your Windows user name, the registry records do not make the right association with where the program is installed on the disk.
So after changing the registry manually and correcting the file path it is now working

Thanks everyone for the help!

Excellent! I'm glad we got it sorted, and I'm glad you let us (& therefore future users) know.
